There's Something MUCH Bigger Than Yellowstone. And It Will Happen Again.

Season 7 Episode 4 | 14m 41s

Yellowstone was massive. Roughly a thousand times larger than the eruption of Mt. St. Helens, the biggest eruption in the history of the continental United States. And if Yellowstone erupted again, the consequences for the U.S. and the world would be devastating. But there’s something far bigger and more powerful than Yellowstone.
